HANDLES vs BUTTONS

One way to distinguish the ways we DO things is with HANDLES or BUTTONS.
Buttons are discrete, handles continuous. With a button you initiate and let go; with a handle you grab on and contol.
Button clicks are more likely symbolic - we string them together. Handles are more analogic - we gesture and indicate.

Bring to class two sketches (8-1/2 x 11) one of a "handle" one of a "button".

Sketch enough of the context so it is clear where and who might use it.
List the features that make this a good or bad example -- what you like or don't.
